MONTREAL -- Andrei Markov is on a roll. The veteran defenceman scored during a power play 4:22 into overtime to lift the Montreal Canadiens to a 4-3 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Sunday night. It was Markovs fourth goal in as many games this season and was a third straight winner. It came after the Canadiens wasted a two-goal lead in the third period as David Clarkson and Dainius Zubrus scored for New Jersey to force overtime. "We played against a good hockey team that hadnt lost and that went to the Stanley Cup final last season, so it was a good measuring stick for us," said Montreal coach Michel Therrien. "We showed a lot of resilience." Brendan Gallagher scored his first NHL goal and Brandon Prust got his first as a Canadien, while Ryan White also scored for Montreal (3-1-0). Patrick Elias had the other goal for New Jersey (3-0-1). Elias and Clarkson had three points each. While Markov was the overtime hero, the talk was all of young players Gallagher and his 18-year-old linemate Alex Galchenyuk, who had two assists. Galchenyuk stole the puck from Andy Greene at the blue-line and sent a perfect pass across to Gallagher to fire into an open side past Martin Brodeur at 13:35 of the first period. Gallagher didnt slide the length of the ice like Edmontons Nail Yakupov, but the 20-year-old looked awfully happy as he leapt in the air and was hugged by his teammates. "To get that first one is something you remember," said Gallagher. "Alex made a great pass. He looked off the D-man and put it right where it had to be. I just had to put it on the net." They are both making a case to stay with the NHL club. Gallagher, playing his third NHL game, made the team out of training camp after starting his first pro season with Hamilton of the American Hockey League. Galchenyuk, the third overall pick in the June draft, has three points in four NHL games. The team will have to decide after a game Tuesday night against the visiting Winnipeg Jets whether to keep Galchenyuk in Montreal or return him to the junior Sarnia Sting. Therrien said only that the decision will be made with Galchenyuks future in mind and wont be influenced by injuries or other factors. The team has lost left-winger Max Pacioretty for 3-to-4 weeks after he had his appendix removed on Saturday. Therrien said "we like how (Galchenyuk) is developing on and off the ice. "Were seeing a lot of combativity from the two young players. They were on the ice for two goals. They had a lot of energy. Whats good is that theyre learning and were seeing results." The youngsters are on aline with rugged veteran Prust, who has also been solid. "Weve got to keep doing the same thing -- keeping it simple out there, moving pucks and hunting down pucks," said Prust, a former New York Ranger. "Thats what made us successful." The Canadiens, who had a 32-25 shot advantage, posted a rare win over Brodeur, who is 43-19-5 against Montreal in his lengthy career. Montreal was first on the puck from the outset and scored 2:25 into the game when Alexei Emelins shot was tipped by Travis Moen and went off Brodeur to White for his first of the season. Emelin flipped the puck to the far blue-line where Greene lost it to Galchenyuk, who slipped a pass into the slot for the onrushing Gallagher to fire into an open side for a 2-0 lead. The roles reversed in the second period as New Jersey camped out in Montreals end and got a goal at 3:26 when Elias tipped a Mark Fayne point shot past Carey Price after some strong work in the corner by Clarkson. Galchenyuk intercepted a clearing attempt and slipped the puck ahead to Prust to bat into the net two minutes into the third period. Galchenyuk and Prust were both off for high-sticking when Clarkson banged in an Elias feed during a two-man advantage at 5:23. Zubrus tied it at 13:02 on a feed from behind the net by Elias. Markov was at the edge of the crease to lift the rebound of Rene Bourques shot off the end boards in overtime. The Canadiens went on the man advantage after Greene took down Erik Cole going to the net at 4:01.

MOORESVILLE, N.C. -- Team Penske will field its current three-car lineup in IndyCar next season. The team said Thursday it will field cars in 2012 for Ryan Briscoe, Helio Castroneves and Will Power -- the same lineup Penske has fielded since 2009. That three-driver lineup has racked up 21 wins and 28 poles over the last three years. Power has gone down to the wire with Dario Franchitti in the championship battle the last two seasons. "The combination of Helio, Ryan and Will has been a formidable one on the track and they work very well together as teammates," said Tim Cindric, President of Penske. "Our goal all along has been to continue running three cars and thanks to our terrific partners, we have been able to make eeverything work from the business side.dddddddddddd "Now, all of our focus will be on developing the new Chevrolet IndyCar and getting ready for a strong return to the track in 2012." The team said sponsorship announcements will be made in the coming months. Briscoe had been the uncertain part of the driver lineup. There had been speculation the last week he would move to Andretti Autosport to fill the hole created when Dan Wheldon was killed in the Oct. 16 season finale. Wheldon had agreed to replace Danica Patrick at Andretti the morning he was killed. Briscoe posted on his Twitter page he was excited to return to Penske. "Its official! I dont have to host Wheel of Fortune next year," he wrote. ' ' '
